GH: January 2025 Discussion Thread

[Vee]

I think Ava was going to go to Valentin after puzzling out that he screwed with Sonny's meds (her discovery of which was done very clumsily, I agree) and they were going to collude for awhile. But who knows.

[DRW50]

That makes sense. 

So Mulcahey was probably screwed by JPS' very generous schedule with the show.

Sasha is pregnant with a Quartermaine.She should not be hiding it and wanting to leave town. She should be demanding her baby’s share of Quartermaine money.

Willow took Wiley across a state line without Michael being asked to approve the trip! Legally a disastrous action. It boggles  the mind that she didn't think this through.

I admittedly had GH on in the background yesterday while doing something else but I am confused as to why Sonny needs to leave the business now.   One Dr. told him his heart was bad at the Gym.  I know most people want Sonny to croak here, but shouldn't he go to the hospital and get some tests done, some medicine, a second opinion before just handing the business over?  There have been about a million other better reasons for Sonny to leave the mob and he didn't so I am a bit confused at his line of thinking here.

[Contessa Donatella]

And so you should be, confused I mean. Here they go with this kind of odd story-telling. I swear that at moments like this I think it is entirely possible that Korte & Chris Van Etten & also Frankie have collectively lost their everloving minds. Isiah even told Sonny to go have an appt specifically with a cardiologist. Then, Jason told him the same thing. He seemed to indicate that in his position as head of the mob he cannot afford to show any weakness. I'm pretty sure that for example Tony Soprano would have definitely seen a cardiologist. IMO other mob bosses wouldn't be stupid and short-sighted. But, I guess we're supposed to think it's okay for Sonny to be different.

[Liberty City]

If I recall and I was half-watching ('cause the episode was boring as ever-loving fück), he couldn't go to the hospital, because it'd show as a sign of weakness/instability within his organization towards his adversaries (Selina Wu?). Hate that Isaiah is getting wrapped into Sonny's web of bullshït already; I'd prefer he not be tainted by the mobster.

[carolineg]

Yeah, that's flimsy af.  The man's been shot a million times, was paralyzed, presumed dead more than once, and has a long history of mental illness, but he's weak and unstable now because he might have to take some pills for his heart and quit drinking so much lol?  

[jasonminer1974]

I'm hoping this is leading to Kristina being brought into the family business?

It's not about leaving it's about getting someone to takeover that won't murder his whole family 

[Contessa Donatella]

And, Isaiah mentioned afib, which is a heart arrhythmia, which is your heart racing instead of the steady beat it needs to be doing. Not a big deal as long as you get tested for it, confirmed that you have it & you take a pill for it, not even a hard to swallow pill, but an easy one & you see that doc 4 times a year. It takes them maybe 15 minutes to do a new EKG. Did you happen to notice the stricken look on Sonny's face? I suspect he is terrified. So, naturally being Sonny he jumps to this huge unwarranted conclusion that Jason has to take over. I am just so over this guy. And, I just know that next week he is gonna try to get Carly to make Jason do what he wants. 

I was proud of Jason, though. He's right. He's Danny's only parent. And, also I do not think Carly is gonna truck with him over this at all.

 

[Contessa Donatella]

I'm not at all sure what I think about this. IOW, Kristina, in your scenario, would truly become THE mob princess?!

Realistically do you think there's really someone/s who is that kind of threat? 

[carolineg]

I guess.  We've have also seen that story play out about 1 million times though.

[jasonminer1974]

When  a mob boss leaves other bosses kill his family

 

I would like to see Kristina learn the business 

[Contessa Donatella]

Alright but you said it was NOT about leaving but fear of reprisals. Now, yes, thanks for addressing reprisals but you've added leaving back in. I'm just gonna have to insist you make up your mind!
